Blue Hawaii tells the story of a lush paradise. The way begins ambient and uncertain, but beautiful white shell beaches and carefree sunshine parties await and nourish those travelers with love in their hearts; their peace thus raised above the arguments found along the rocky road. The duo consists of Raph and Agor; they use voice, guitars, synths, drum machines, and other electronics to create a kind of tropical-pop with love ache melodies and experimental club rhythms.

Brooklyn-based duo, Matt & Kim, released their third full length this year. Like the past two albums, Sidewalks is complete with simplistic lyrics, synth melodies, shouty singing, and the band's gleefully spazzy sound...everything we love about Matt & Kim.
